Growing up, we’ve all heard or read legends of selfless heroes and dastardly villains. These stories stick with us our entire lives and tend to inspire us in one way or another. But you…you’ve taken it a step beyond. Whether you call it passion or obsession, the “hero” of these legends has influenced every facet of your life, down to very decisions you make. Some aspirants become traveling storytellers, spreading the tales of their idol across the world. Others follow in the footsteps of their idol, using him or her as an inspiration to aspire to. A small few, however, have become so enveloped in these legends that they’ve become completely delusional, believing THEMSELVES to be the very idol from these stories.
